During dinner, Adela sat across from Sima Chuan, occasionally glancing at him and thinking, "I never expected that his ordinary appearance wasn't real. Even more surprising is how handsome he looks without changing his face."
Betis noticed Adela's demeanor and leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "Adela, he was meant for you. Are you going to take him back?"
Adela remained silent, her heart in turmoil. Betis continued, "Adela, you must reclaim him! You are the rightful one. Didn't you see how he ignored you after finding out about the two of you? Hmph, he's too arrogant. You need to take him back and show him what you're capable of."
"Isn't that a bit much?" Adela pondered.
"What's wrong with that? You are the legitimate one. That 'woman' is nothing but someone who spends time with him; it makes me uncomfortable just watching."
Adela looked at Betis's expression and smiled, asking, "Are you feeling envious? Do you want to win him over too?"
"Huh?" Betis lowered her head, her face turning a rare shade of red.
"Alright, I'll see if he has any charm. If he can make my heart flutter, I might reluctantly accept him. For now, let's put him to the test," Adela said with a smile, glancing at Sima Chuan, leaving him puzzled.
After dinner, Yiling eagerly urged Markett to continue telling stories from the past. Markett didn't take a break and began speaking directly: "After I created the Noel Battleship, Nai learned about it. He feared I would take the Noel Battleship and Akapa to find the Star Master and Star Empress. One lively night, Nai surrounded my Technology Room with the Shadow Legion, claiming I was going to transfer important data and drove the town's residents away. I intended to negotiate with Nai, but his conditions were for Akapa's research data and the Noel Battleship's research data. I knew exactly what he wanted, so I couldn't agree. He threatened me with the safety of the town's residents. I realized I couldn't continue like this anymore, so I chose to disappear while documenting everything.
"I called Qiong and Akapa over and instructed them to pilot the Noel Battleship to Earth while keeping it hidden from Nai. When Nai saw that I hadn't come out for a long time, he started destroying my Technology Room. After Qiong and Akapa left, I instilled a concept of peace into Noel's consciousness because I feared that Noel's growth might not turn out as I envisioned. Looking back on my actions back then, I truly regret intervening in Noel's growth and placing such a heavy burden on him." Markett looked at Sima Chuan with a sense of guilt.
Sima Chuan smiled and stepped forward to embrace Markett gently, saying softly, "Grandpa, I don't regret it. This is what I should do. I love peace just as much as I enjoy watching those tranquil and beautiful stars in the night sky."
"Ha ha." Markett smiled wryly, "Ah, Noel, you've grown up!"
"Grandpa, please continue," Sima Chuan said as he pulled a floating chair for Markett to sit on.
Markett rubbed his eyes and said, "After I finished all those things, I sent Noel to Earth. At the same time, I contacted Sade and had him meet with Qiong and Akapa. I told Sade everything and asked him to keep it quiet, hiding under Nai's radar until the right moment to reclaim Crimson Face. Sade agreed without hesitation, and I also gave him some useful techniques to make his future tasks easier. In the end, I left Sterco Town aboard a battleship, created a false identity here, changed my appearance, and opened a mechanical repair shop just to wait for Noel's return.
"Later, just as I expected, when Noel arrived on Earth, he had no identity and no information about himself. They guessed that he probably didn't belong to Earth. So the security personnel on Earth vaguely informed Noel that his parents had died and that he was an orphan, giving him an identity while Noel chose to wander.
"Sade kept investigating news about Crimson Face and eventually learned that Nai was going to undergo fusion technology with a girl from Earth. Sade directly took the girl away and got to know Rock on Earth before settling down in a place. We have kept in touch all these years. If I'm not mistaken, you are the one who fused with Crimson Face, right?" Markett looked at Luo Mengqi.
Luo Mengqi nodded and smiled, "Yes, my name is Luo Mengqi."
Markett nodded, "Luo Mengqi? Not bad."
"Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa," Luo Mengqi said happily.
"Hmph! Are we not good enough? Old man, I'll pull all your hair out one day," Betis threatened.
"Hehe, you are both great," Markett quickly replied.
"Hmph!" Betis provocatively looked at Luo Mengqi, who paid no attention at all.
Although Sima Chuan understood everything that had happened, he still had one question in his heart. He approached Markett directly and asked, "Grandpa, what about my parents? Why haven't I seen them for so long?"
They looked at Markett with confusion. Markett sighed deeply, his face filled with sorrow. "Your parents were very fond of technological experiments, and that's how they met. They had an accident during a major technological trial, and they lost their lives." After he finished speaking, tears streamed down his face. Although Sima Chuan had no clear memories of his parents, hearing this made his heart feel blocked and painful.
Luo Mengqi couldn't bear to see Sima Chuan like this. She hugged him from behind and whispered in his ear, "It's okay, Chuan. It's all in the past. You still have us, right?"
Qiong also came over, giving Sima Chuan a light punch on the shoulder while smiling gently. "And you have me too."
"Heh, yes, it's all in the past," Sima Chuan managed a strained smile. Markett seemed to recover quickly, shaking off the sadness. "Noel, you need to remember that what you have to do is very important. Don't let a little thing affect your emotions, understand?"
"Yes, I understand, Grandpa," Sima Chuan nodded. He then asked, "Do you know about Nai's power distribution?"
"I know a bit. For instance, in various regions and on different planets, especially those focused on technological development, Nai establishes some influence. Take Earth's mechanical factories for example; otherwise, he wouldn't know that you are all on Earth."
"I see."
"Sage, what are your plans next?" Adela elegantly stepped forward to Markett and asked softly.
"We need to go with you to Star Palace first. But I wonder if you, as a Star Maiden, are willing?" Markett smiled at Adela.
Before Adela could respond, Betis spoke up directly. "Of course we are willing! If Nai really has such grand ambitions, we must stop him; otherwise, the planets won't be as beautiful as they are now." However, she thought to herself: Hmph! Just wait until Noel arrives in our territory; we will have our fun with him. She looked at Sima Chuan with a mischievous grin that sent a chill down his spine.
Adela noticed Betis's expression and guessed her thoughts. She smiled and nodded. "Sage will follow us back to Star Palace then."
"Alright, I'll go back with you," Markett laughed heartily.
